7th April 2010

Start of the 2010 Season

With the start of the 2010 cricket season rapidly approaching here is some important information.   Please take time to read it and take action where necessary.  In particular I would urge you to provide your availability for the first two weekends of the season and to take note of the ‘No Pay No Play’ policy mentioned below.


Monday 12th April – First selection meeting

The captains will be meeting to select teams for Saturday 17th and Sunday 18th April.  Please let the captains know your availability by clicking HERE and filling in the form.  The deadline is 5.00pm on Monday 12th April as the selection will be done shortly after this.

To see what the fixtures are for that weekend and the rest of the season, download a copy of the fixture card by clicking HERE.


Friday 16th April – Pre-season players meeting at 8.00pm

Please come along to discuss the start of the 2010 season with the captains, pay your membership fees, collect a copy of the fixture card and hear what the Club Captain has to say about the season ahead.


Northants 2XI v Leicestershire 2XI - Bank Holiday Monday 31st May

Lancot Park will be hosting a one day match with coloured clothing, black sight screens and white ball.  Keep an eye on the club website for more details.


Nets

A reminder that there are still senior nets running on a Tuesday evening between 7.30pm and 9pm and also for one more week only, on a Sunday between 10am and 12noon.  Please make sure you are ready for the start of the season by taking advantage of the facilities the club has to offer.


Annual Membership and match fees

Annual subscription rates and match fees for 2010 are to remain the same as last year:

Ways to Pay

There are numerous ways to pay your membership fees including cash, cheque, standing order (direct from your bank), credit or debit card and PayPal.  For details see the Treasurer’s subs payment page HERE.


‘No Pay No Play’ policy

Annual membership fees must be paid before Sunday 9th May.  Anyone who has not paid by this date will not be considered for selection for the weekend of 15th/16th May and beyond, until payment has been received.


100 Club

The 100 Club is up and running: two draws have taken place so far and the next one is on Sunday 18th April.  If you haven’t already joined it is not too late, we are still hoping for plenty more people to join in.  The more people who are in the competition the bigger the monthly prizes will be.  Maybe you can interest some of your friends or family in joining in for a chance to win.
